WE KNOW THAT Kim Kardashian has some grá for Ireland – she did, after all, spend some of her honeymoon with Kanye West here – but after her recent robbery in Paris she might be jetting back here again.
Well, perhaps not – but that’s the hope of one Enda Kenny, who extended an invitation to Kardashian while announcing 85 new jobs at Carlow company Netwatch today.
“I was going to say there was a good lady robbed in Paris the other few days [ago] of jewellery,” the Taoiseach said in audio which was captured by Newstalk today.
And maybe if they had employed Netwatch they mightn’t have been [robbed] at all. Send them a message and say ‘over here, we will mind you’.
Kardashian was robbed at gunpoint in an incident involving five armed men while staying at a Paris apartment earlier this week. They took jewellery worth up to $10 million after tying her up and leaving her in the bathroom.
The Taoiseach’s off-the-cuff remark was a good plug for Netwatch, and proof that in Kenny’s eyes Ireland isn’t just the Best Small Country in The World in Which to do Business.
It’s also the Best Small Country in the World in Which to Recover from a Terrifying Burglary.
One to put on the CV, surely.

I can just imagine Kim, Kourtney, Kloe and Kenny all out shopping In castlebar
@john: Pennys shopping
Kim and Kanye have already been to ireland, for their honeymoon- which they cut short and went somewhere else because kim found ireland gloomy and depressing.
I find Kim vacuous and pointless so, meh!
@Tweety McTweeter: Kim will just pat Kenny on his head. He’s used to that so all is good..
Well he’d know a lot about day light robbery.
That headline makes him sound like a dirty old uncle…
@Tony Skillington: his pic makes him look a bit Pervy too:-D
Did enda hear about the ‘good woman ‘sleeping on the street in Dublin with her assistance dog? Does he have a message for her. Who will mind her? We not paying his salary for him to Keep Up With self proclaimed celebrities.
@marg fitzgerald: If or when she becomes a celebrity, she will be the first on Enda’s visiting list.
He is turning into a bigger arse than Bertie at this stage.
What a fecking idiot !
And him one of the biggest crooks in the fupping country!!
Holy fook! Cringe!
“We ” will mind you, who are the “we” us the taxpayers, it would probably cost “us” a few million to pay for their security!
@Colette Kearns: If Kim kame to Ireland, nobody would “mind” her and it would destroy her because her need for attention is second only to oxygen
Colette your right. We the taxpayer. I wonder is Enda now trying to privatise the guards?
Go home Enda your drunk
And fu@k all the homeless that are citizens.
@Juan Carr: They’re simply for moving on, or being walked on and pepper sprayed.
Because there’s absolutely no way a tourist could get robbed here. Though she probably should wait until after the gardai strike. What planet is that man on. Massive problems in the upper echelons of the garda, rank and file about to go on strike.
Anne Marie it’s a wonder he didn’t invite all the tourists who get mugged and badly beaten as well as robbed in our capital city every other night. Ohh wait they don’t matter. Just like the middle class taxpayer and the tourist.
He’s just trying to lure them back to pay their hotel bill.
He’ll mind her but he can’t mind his own?
Couldn’t agree more. What a pillock he is.
So we can now officially add sleezeball to the lengthy list of pejorative adjectives we use to describe Enda
@Ironballs: Idiot still works for me.
Kanye wont be so broke anymore. i bet he had that ring insured big time. Sure only a few months back Kanye Begged Mark Zuckerberg For $1 Billion on Twitter. (https://twitter.com/kanyewest/status/698926987281371136)
100% Insurance scam.
Interesting incident. Perhaps more to the robbery than meets the eye.
As long as she doesn’t get a job here and pay taxes….then she’ll be looked after! If she has to pay taxes and pay rent…that’s a different story!
It’s not funny hearing IndaKinny talk like this as it’s obviously clear that this Mayo village idiot is slowly becoming insane. A straitjacket awaits for you soon enough, IndaKinny…very soon, I hope!
He can’t wait to get his hands on her booty!
Kenny thinks he’s running Irelandistan
what a plonker
someone get this tosser out of goverrnment
@Craig Barry: 75% of people who voted in the election voted to get him and FG out of government.
CRINGE!!!!!!!!
He has his own police force to mind her.
FFS how much longer do we have to endure this finger pointing clown. Its a daily torture probably similar to having your finger and toe nails removed with a pliers. I would say even the blueshirt trolls have a pain in the ar$e listening to his non stop verbal diarrhoea.
Sounds like he went off script again. He shouldn’t be allowed to do that, cause you know, being a dope you say stupid things when you go off script.
Robbery all a set up for insurance money…west to be investigate for fraud….
You in the blue hoodie. Take that gun out of Kim’s face.
To be honest, she’d be just as likely to be robbed in Dublin. By someone looking for money to buy drugs.
Whatever about whatsername. The thieves would get free legal aid. 6 months suspended and sell the bling off.
As long as she doesn’t visit on any Friday in November !
The robbery must have been a real bummer.
That’s pretty much the least flippant thing I’ve heard said about that robbery. Stop being so precious the lot of ye!
Idiot the lot of them
The back of a Shovel would be too good for you Enda
Mother of sweet God, it takes one to know one.
Terrible, awful comedian but far better at comedy than leader of the country
Lil pwick!
The saddest part of this story is that Enda Kenny has an advisor on his payroll probably on plus €70k that thought this would be a great idea for him to say this to the f$&king media, are you sh$ting me.
Be would only try and extort some Kind of a tax out of them, but I guess they could hang out together in mayo while he takes another week off.
What a vile obnoxious yolk Kenny really is
I can’t stand her because she is in my view up her own big rear..
What a dope! While Irish citizens can’t relax in town because of shootings.
Is Enda the infamous Pink Panther, he has his mojo back???
Answer the sneering snivelling git to look after his own people
Sure doesn’t she still
Owe for her honeymoon, she would want to settle up first
Kenny’s blueshirts will protect you ! It is the rest of us that are being attacked by them.
If Kim and Kayne were drowning beside my boat, I wonder what kind of sandwich I’d make.
have your say
